GEMs was rather fun today! (: We solved jigsaw puzzle *hahas* But it was very simple de la. Went to FC2 after my Analogue Communication Systems practical to eat Macdonald's. I ate McSpicy meal. It had been a long time since I last ate McSpicy. *hahas*
Yesterday's Sensors and Instrumentation class was quite interesting (: Here is a photo of it:
Our objective was to trial and error to find out the programming of the circuit for the different components of the set-up to work. If everything works properly, the cable car would start off from the centre of the track and move either to its left or right. It will then move past the center 5 times before it comes to a stop. There is a light sensor under the light bulb which will 'count' the number of times the car passes by. When the cable car touches the end (the yellow spot), which is the limit switch, the gears operating the track will change direction and make the car go in the opposite direction. Rather interesting huh? We are thus suppose to get into groups of 4 to 5 to do this Mini Project. My group consists of WeI Guang, Yan Zhao, Ming Hui, probably Chin Hong and I. Yan Zhao did the observation and maybe I will take care of the report at the end of the project. Other groups had "Ferris Wheel", "Prirate Ship" and "Flying swing" as their set-up. I wonder if ours is easy or difficult.
I just found out that the owner of http://happy-swirl.blogspot.com/ used my idea of the bottles that I sold in my blogshop to sell in her blogshop. I guess she still have much improvements to make. Although her bottles are costing cheaper at only $2.50 per bottle, her bottles looks like this:
I mean selling the bottles at $2.50 (her bottles are smaller) compared to mine at $3.50 is relatively cheaper. But I think it's the quality that counts. I am not saying the ones that I made are nicer than hers, but I think at least mine have colours and all. The wordings would probably drop off and decompose after a short time. Maybe everyone reading this blog can tag in my tagbox and give me comments on whether I should too make such bottles with no colouring at all and sell at such price. Sometimes, I feel like making bottles of slightly larger size so that I can make them into long-chained necklaces. But I wonder if anyone would buy it. *haiis* Doing such business isn't easy at all ): But one thing for sure, her handphone string that she supply is sure cheaper than what I see in shops. She supplies them at:
10 pieces=$4
30 pieces=$9
50 pieces=$13
Over 100 pieces=$15
What I found is from Mu-Ee which is costing me $0.50 for 1 string. And it's without the clasp. If it's with the clasp, they are selling it at least $0.90. Damn expensive huh?! Ehhh. I am still not very happy with that blogshop even though she placed the credits to my blogshop right above those pictures. *haiis* Even about that. Anyone, just tag my box for your comments, please! (:
Another memorable day (: I love that 'sweet game'. *hahas!*
Wei Guang taught me Analogue Communication Systems practical (experiment 4) today. Die la! I everything also don't know. Even after he taught me, once he 'messed up' the osciloscope, function generator etc, I don't even know how to set it back properly ): I would be staying back after school next Friday with my classmates to practice for the experiments as the LabTest are all coming up in week 7. And I still can't do other experiments, even in other modules too, except for Data Communication Systems. But suprisingly, I don't know how to do its tutorial ): Sad man. And that's the Old Witch lesson. *hahas* I might also be having extra Maths lessons during the holidays in preparation for the upcoming MSTs. Have to study real hard and pull up my socks. *hahas*
Shall end here and update soon! (:
WTH!! I just heard the word "Liu Hai" coming from the TV programme!!! How many time must I here that word in 1 day? *arrgh!!*
